The nice thing about the ezoutlet units is that they take 240V input as well with a 10A fuse. Belkin Wemo's only take 110V, so you can't use them in a datacenter with 208V power.
I also have APC PDU's that I use, but they top out at 15A, in the old days it wasn't an issue, now with the new gawminers and overclocked S3 antminers, they pull 10-12A now. Power cables have been getting warmer with the new less efficient miners, so you still need to be careful with your power cabling.

neat!
A couple of low cost suggestions, first is a belkin wemo unit, the other is called EZ Outlet and after upgrading my mining farm, I have 6 units that I'm not using. I put them up on ebay. Just search ebay for item number 191257676966.
You can manage the Ez outlets from a web interface or from a smartphone app.

APC Masterswitch.... but they are pricey

To be honest if its not going in a data centre I'd make one for a fraction of the cost using a raspberry pi and one of the 240v relay banks you can buy on ebay.... just put it all in a project box and job done.

I need a power switch that I can access via web from a different city to turn my miners off/on when I need to. Any suggestions?
